Maison Louis Latour - Auxey-Duresses 2020

Pinot Noir
great finale
roast veal

"A light-bodied red that's well worth a try!"

Auxey-Duresses is situated at the entrance to a valley that stretches from the Côte de Beaune into the Hautes Côtes along the road to La Rochepot and Autun. With a deep color and ruby highlights, this 2020 Auxey-Duresses reveals a nose with notes of red berries and nutmeg. On the palate, it is fresh and light, offering aromas of blackberry and cherry, with pronounced tannins, leading to a lovely finish.

Rated estate (2025 guide) 4*Stars (Producers of the very highest quality, the pride of French viticulture)

About the estate:

This family-owned estate, founded in 1797, is primarily associated with the Côte de Beaune, where it owns the bulk of its vineyards, culminating in a magnificent vineyard on the famous Corton hillside. Louis-Fabrice, the eleventh generation of the Latour family, chairs the family board and has complete confidence in his exceptional winemakers. The reds have undergone extended fermentation, giving them more body and substance; the whites are less reductive and more harmoniously oaked than in the past, with a constant pursuit of balance that sometimes leads to them being underestimated in their youth, but they age magnificently. The 2017 vintage follows in the successful footsteps of the 2010 and 2015 vintages for both reds and whites, but we would place more confidence in the wines from the estate’s own vineyards than in certain purchased wines—especially the whites, which are too diluted.

Rated estate (2025 guide) Award-winning wines (This producer’s wines are regularly recognized by the guide)

About the estate:

A family-owned estate that has always remained independent, founded in 1797 and run by 10 successive generations of the Latour family. A key player in Burgundy’s wine industry and the largest owner of Grand Cru vineyards in the Côte-d’Or (28 hectares out of the 48 that make up its vineyard). The grapes are vinified in Aloxe-Corton, the family’s birthplace, and the estate has its own cooperage.
